Abstract
The embodiments of the present invention provide a backlight assembly and a display device. The direction of light for display can be adjusted without increasing the thickness of the display device. The backlight assembly comprises: an adjustable liquid crystal lens; a first polarizer located on a light input side of the adjustable liquid crystal lens; a determining unit configured for determining an output direction for light from the backlight assembly; and a controlling unit configured for controlling a tilt angle of the liquid crystal in the adjustable liquid crystal lens based on the output direction determined by the determining unit, thereby ensuring light from the backlight assembly propagating in the determined output direction.
